This Time, I Will Get My Divorce, Mr novel Chapter 21

“Baby, don’t look at him. Look at me, all right?” Charles tried his best to draw Sonia’s gaze back from the window. “I’m more handsome than Carl, okay? Or do you like virgins like him more?”

Having had her thoughts interrupted, Sonia didn’t know if she should be angry or laugh, so she rolled her eyes at him. “When I was young, I thought you were narcissistic. Who knew you’d grow up worse.”

“I’m just aware of how handsome I am!” Charles chuckled. “Really, baby. Don’t you want to marry me? The Ocean’s Heart is nothing. I will find the world’s most unique diamond ring to propose to you!”

Sonia and Charles grew up together, and they often dropped by each other’s houses, so they were extremely close. Sonia knew that Charles was just trying to cheer her up because he knew that she was upset.

She was indeed rather amused by his remarks, and she even remembered the things she had neglected.

Sonia opened her handbag and took out a ring from one of the compartments. Even in the dim lighting of the car, the diamond was still dazzling.

This was her wedding ring.

Sonia looked at the wedding ring in her hand, and everything that happened tonight flashed rapidly through her mind.

She recalled the scene of Toby kneeling down and proposing to Tina, almost as if he was spoiling her, and the scene where he protected Tina… Her calm heart began to make waves again.

Through the rearview mirror, Charles saw the ring, but he didn’t make a joke about it. “Baby, you know that some people look like humans, but they don’t deserve to be humans. If you meet again in the future, you have to take a detour.”

“Okay.” It was only a few dozen seconds, but Sonia’s heart was already at peace.

She placed the wedding ring on the armrest compartment in the center, and her tone was calm when she said, “Sell this wedding ring for me too. Donate the money to the people in the poor mountain areas.”

With that, Sonia leaned back in her chair and looked at the scenery flashing by outside the car window, and her whole being calmed down.

After eight years, her one-sided love had finally come to an end, which made her feel relieved.

……

At the hotel, the banquet was still ongoing, and the guests were still bustling, as if nothing had happened earlier.

One after another, Toby greeted each company’s bosses and business partners. It took a long time before he had time to breathe, and exhaustion was clear in his eyes.

As soon as he sat down to rest, Tina came over.

“Toby, are you okay?” Tina asked thoughtfully as she poured warm water for him before walking around to the back to massage his shoulders.

Her technique was right, but there was still a lingering irritation haunting Toby’s heart.

Toby pressed Tina’s hand, then said in a deep voice, “You’d been going around with your father greeting everyone tonight, so you must be quite tired. You should sit down and rest.”

“Okay.” Tina gave a small smile, then sat down beside the man.

She peeled an orange and handed it to Toby, but he didn’t take it and simply stared at her. “Tina, how did the car accident happen back then? Tell me again.”
